THINK TAX | “INVEST IN THE PHILIPPINES TODAY!” by Raymond Abrea published via INQUIRER.net Mon Abrea highlights ongoing issues with Value-Added Tax (VAT) refunds, despite the Ease of Paying Taxes (EOPT) Act introducing a risk-based processing approach. To address these challenges directly, he proposes establishing a separate Tax Refund Center from the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR).

#InterviewAlert | In his interview with Raine Musngi on Bilyonaryo News Channel’s Business Brief yesterday, March 5, 2025, ACG Founder and CEO Raymond Abrea tackled the pushback against tax automation. He highlighted how automation will close loopholes, expose hidden income, and make tax compliance more transparent, benefiting honest taxpayers while posing a threat to corrupt examiners, tax evaders, and smugglers. With bank accounts now monitored and BIR processes becoming more efficient, automation will revolutionize tax collection in the Philippines. As most taxes are still voluntarily declared, this shift ensures that compliance is fair, efficient, and corruption-free. #BilyonaryoNewsChannel #BNC #BusinessBrief #Interview #BIR #RiskBasedAudit #Automation   Manila Standard Philippine Daily Inquirer INQUIRER.net BusinessWorld Publishing Corporation BusinessMirror Rappler PhilSTAR Life Stargate PeopleAsia news.abs-cbn.com GMA Network, Inc.
